"Give me a break."

Chen Shu and Zhang Dali decisively left, not wanting to linger any longer.

Just then, a rumbling sound suddenly echoed, shaking the Black Market.

Chen Shu looked up to see two Contracted Spirits appearing on the distant street.

A large crimson bird soared into the sky, with faint flames flickering around its sharp claws.

The other was a towering shadow, standing two meters tall, entirely black but solid.

The two were locked in fierce combat.

Despite the crimson bird's advantage of flight, it was being suppressed.

The shadow extended a black line, like a rope, binding the Flame Bird.

Not far away, Xu Xiaoyu looked distressed, not expecting to encounter such a crisis in the Black Market.

The red bird was her Contracted Spirit, an A-rated Flame Bird.

"Someone's actually releasing their Contracted Spirit to cause trouble. The Spirit Suppression Bureau will be here soon."

People were discussing, all keeping their distance from the street.

Though there were Advanced Beast Masters in the Black Market, none seemed willing to get involved.

The Beast Master controlling the shadow had reached level nine, and subduing him would require a Black Iron Grade Beast Master.

But Black Iron Grade Beast Masters were strong enough to form Beast Tamer teams and explore Dimensional Realms.

Such strong individuals wouldn't easily appear in the Black Market.

Zhang Dali was just an ordinary person, but his parents were Black Iron Grade Beast Masters.

Otherwise, with his personality, he would've been beaten up long ago.

"That's Xu Xiaoyu's Contracted Spirit."

Zhang Dali looked at the Flame Bird, remembering how its awakening had shaken the entire grade.

"Chen Shu, what do you think? Seems like it's time for us to act."

"Indeed, it's our turn to step in!"

Chen Shu looked serious, clenching his fists slightly.

The two exchanged a glance and nodded at each other.

The next moment, they sprinted towards the nearest South Entrance.

Their ability to navigate the streets for years was largely due to their skill in running away.

Seeing the battle between the two Contracted Spirits spreading towards them,

if they didn't run now, then when?

But just as they were running with their heads down, options suddenly appeared in Chen Shu's vision.

[Option 1: Release the Golden Slime and directly overpower the Shadow Monster. Reward: Beast Master level up by one.]

[Option 2: Leave them to their fate and escape in the chaos. Reward: Slime's Charge Attack skill increases by one.]

[Option 3: Capture the leader first, directly ambush the Shadow Monster's master. Reward: Golden Slime's attributes increase by 5%! Note: System hint received, target location locked.]

[Option 4: Shout loudly, urging the crowd to watch the spectacle. Reward: Title obtained: Non-Human! Effect when worn: Increases damage to non-human creatures by 20%.]

Chen Shu was taken aback, the title "Non-Human" instantly tempting him.

The name sounded impressive, but the effect was rather useless.

"Dali, follow me to beat him up!"

Chen Shu suddenly stopped, deciding to save Xu Xiaoyu.

As soon as he spoke, he pulled out a large bag from his backpack.

"You damn well carry a bag of urea with you?!"

Zhang Dali looked shocked,

thinking he was unbeatable, only to find someone even fiercer.

"Cut the crap, come on!"

Chen Shu's vision suddenly changed,

seeing a man at the end of the street glowing with a crimson light.

Beast Masters below Black Iron Grade wouldn't easily expose themselves,

as they could only control one Contracted Spirit, making their bodies quite vulnerable.

Only Black Iron Grade Beast Masters would awaken a second Contracted Spirit, providing protection for their bodies.

A buzz-cut man stood by the street, silently controlling the Shadow Monster.

His face bore an evil smile, clearly a villain,

just short of having "I'm a bad guy!" carved on his forehead.

To distract him, Chen Shu released the Golden Slime in advance,

though he was only a Level 2 Beast Master, the Slime had grown much stronger through multiple choices, standing nearly half a meter tall, looking like a moving pile of dung.

"Gooey!" The Slime opened its big eyes, bouncing in place.

Under Chen Shu's command, the Golden Slime approached the battlefield.

The man glowing red suddenly had his vision blurred, seeing a massive yellow object mysteriously appear, crashing into the Shadow Monster.

"What the hell, where did this dung come from?!"

This novel is available on "p𝑎wread.com".

He was startled, instantly realizing a Beast Master was interfering.

The Slime used Gigantification, reaching nearly two meters, looking quite imposing.

While the man was distracted, two high school students silently approached.

Chen Shu and Zhang Dali's stealth abilities were stronger than professionals, clearly having done this many times.

Less than a meter away, they couldn't help but grin, letting out a 'hehe' sound.

The man seemed to sense something, suddenly turning around.

But in an instant, a bag flew at him, blocking his vision.

What followed was the sound of a beating.

Liu Wuyi couldn't help but shout, feeling his head buzzing, even becoming somewhat disoriented.

Chen Shu and Zhang Dali, like brutes, kept pounding away.

If the opponent controlled the Contracted Spirit to attack, their lives could be in danger.

They didn't hold back at all, despite being high school students, they were both quite tall, otherwise, they wouldn't be sitting at the back of the classroom.

"Stop, damn it, stop!"

Liu Wuyi kept struggling, feeling incredibly unlucky to be suddenly ambushed.

"Class Monitor Zheng Yi from Beast Class Three, let's knock him out first."

"Top of the grade from Third Middle School, Brother Wang Teng, will we get in trouble for this?"

"We can't worry about that now."

They shouted loudly, singing in harmony, instantly selling out Zheng Yi and Wang Teng.

This person dared to act in the Black Market, clearly not a good person.

Everyone else was speechless, who calls someone that?

At this moment, Liu Wuyi's mind was gradually becoming muddled, suddenly feeling a sharp pain, and he passed out.

Without the master's control, the Shadow Monster instantly returned to the Beast Space.

Chen Shu also recalled the Slime to the Beast Space.

Below, Xu Xiaoyu was stunned, not expecting the crisis to be suddenly resolved.

"Could it be a strong person intervened?"

Xu Xiaoyu wondered, then saw a crowd gathering elsewhere.

She retracted the Flame Bird and approached the crowd.

There, she saw two students relentlessly beating a person on the ground,

the person's body motionless, with a bag of urea covering his head.

"You guys?"

Xu Xiaoyu recognized Chen Shu and Zhang Dali.

"Sister Xiaoyu, you're just in time, this thug dared to openly attack you, but don't worry, I've already subdued him."

Chen Shu said, occasionally kicking the person on the ground.

"You guys handled it?"

Xu Xiaoyu was dumbfounded, thinking it was a strong person, but it turned out to be these two guys?
